[Stemo]

I was sitting playing with my iPad on my lap at about 7:30 when I got a really bad pain across my chest. It then went to my (right) shoulder, neck and jaw. I won't kid you, I shit myself, I could hardly breathe. Mrs called an ambulance and the first responder was here in a bout ten minutes. Wired me up and gave me aspirin and painkillers. Ambulance came about twenty minutes later and took me to hospital.
More wires and a blood test, and told to sit in the waiting room, so I thought it couldn't be too bad. After an hour of trying to read the subtitles on the telly from twenty yards they took me for a chest X-ray and then another waiting room, minus telly, but complete with beat-up drunk who wouldn't shut up.
Then I was told I'd have to stay the night, when they found a bed....shit. Next was an injection into my stomach to thin my blood, then back to waiting room.
It's now midnight and I'm getting royally pissed off. Tuesday night, comparatively quiet, yet no beds.
Now the stupid bit.....I waited until about quarter to one and made a break for it. Stood outside in the pissing rain in just a jumper waiting for a cab, hiding like a prison escapee in case they came to get me. They didn't and I got home about 1:30. Missus was surprised

Anyway....feel ok'ish today........been out with the dog....so you don't get rid of me that eas..................gasp.......

You need to follow this up to make sure it was not a minor heart attack.

When my ex-wife had one, they used a blood test to assert weather she had and also found her cholesterol level was over 12!

Should have waited for blood results to see if Troponin levels were raised, dipstick

Yeah, I know. But they said that would take two hours and then changed it to 'the morning'.

Two hours would have been ok, Rob, but I'm an impatient, know-all bastid and I wasn't gonna wait till, supposedly, this morning......this aft....tomorrow.

you could have considered it an impromptu holiday.

btw, potential heart attack, and you went home before you got the all clear?

You daft prick

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

We'll all miss you if you croak.

You can be so charming when you want to, Opti 

[Marks DTM Calib]

So whats the plan, pop in again today for the results?

[ronnyd]

Indigestion can give some weird sensations, still best to get it checked though.

Attention seeking again 

Get you fat arse back there or see your GP soonest

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

We naturally hope that you pull through, Steve.

However, there is always a chance you won't, and if this happens can I have your Daewoo please?

In the meantime, go back and see the quack.
